About York Dungeon Standard Admission

York Dungeon Standard Admission at York Dungeon takes you through 2,000 years of York’s darker history. This walk-through attraction uses live actors, immersive sets and special effects to bring the city’s murky past to life.

Along the way, you meet figures linked to York’s history, including the Vikings, Guy Fawkes and Isabella Billington. The experience also covers the Black Death and a torture chamber, with scenes designed to be seen, heard and, as the source puts it, smelt.

It is an atmospheric way to explore York’s more gruesome stories, with history presented through performance and set pieces rather than a traditional exhibition.

Key facts: This is a live-actor attraction covering 2,000 years of York history. Younger visitors must be aged 5 or over, and the experience is not recommended for under 8s.
